I get this question a lot, presumably because quite a few pregnant ladies have trouble sleeping by this point. My answer, so far, has been pretty normally, thank you very much! Thanks to the Snoogle I have the right head and back support, and I don't seem to need belly support too much, although its there if/when I do. I also have benefitted somewhat from the Bun being head up, because most of her weight is concentrated high, aka not on my bladder. For this reason, I'm guessing, I haven't gotten up during the night to use the bathroom more than a handful of times this whole pregnancy. I also have been comfortable in most positions, including on my back, and only need a couple of small adjustments with the Snoogle if anything feels uncomfortable. So, I have been really lucky and sleeping through the night very consistently.
Jeremy, however, has been woken up during the night quite a few times, and here's why. The Epic Snoring Beast (me). Pregnancy has led me to be more congested, and some of the adjustments to help me sleep comfortably involve bending my neck and shoulders in a certain way, all of which has led me to be an ESB. I am so sorry for this. Whenever he wakes me up to help me adjust, I'm immediately hit with guilt and shame. I know it's normal, and Jeremy is very sweet about it and never complains, he actually never even mentions it unless I ask about the night before, but geez. This has got to be rough for him, and I consistently wake up with a sore throat from so much snoring. Stupid congestion.
But other than that, I'm doing well and saving up memories of long nights of sleep. Thank goodness for king sized beds and Snoogle!
